Beady Eye confirm new album for 2013

Beady Eye have confirmed that work on their second studio album has started and is expected for release next year.

The Liam Gallagher-fronted band have teamed up with producer Dave Sitek for the follow-up to 2011’s Different Gear, Still Speeding.

The producer – best known as a member of TV On The Radio – has previously worked with the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Scarlett Johansson.

“Beady Eye have returned to the studio to start on the follow-up to their Different Gear, Still Speeding debut album released last year,” a statement on the band’s website read.

“Liam, Gem, Andy and Chris started sessions today with producer Dave Sitek… Release date is yet to be confirmed but the as yet untitled album will come out in 2013.”

Noel Gallagher recently said his brother’s band Beady Eye have “a good album in them”, adding that they “f**king need one”.
